Which match opens the show?: Lesnar match
Which match main events the show?: Tag
Which match will Bleacher Report give the best grade to?: Tag
Which match will Bleacher Report give the worst grade to?: SmackDown Women's


CARD PREDICTIONS (WORTH THREE POINTS EACH):
Becky Lynch vs Trish Stratus: Trish wins. Surprisingly, nobody picked her.
Cody Rhodes vs Brock Lesnar: Lesnar wins. Surprisingly, nobody picked him.
Tag Team Championship: Kevin Owens & Sami Zayn (c) vs The Bloodline: KO & Sami retain! The Bloodline are fracturing! This SHOULD have happened a bit earlier, but still, oooh
Intercontinental Championship - Gunther (c) vs Mustafa Ali: GUNTHER SMASH
SmackDown Women's Championship - Rhea Ripley (c) vs Natalya: Rhea wins in, like, a minute. Happy birthday Natty I guess
Raw Women's Championship - Bianca Belair (c) vs Asuka: Asuka wins! Probably a month and a bit late, but we got there in the end.
World Heavyweight Championship - Seth Rollins vs AJ Styles: Seth wins in a lovely little opener.

SPECIAL PREDICTIONS (WORTH TWO POINTS EACH UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED):
Lynch match - will the finish be clean?: Nope, Zoey Stark was napping under the ring the whole time.
Rhodes match - how many F5s does Brock Lesnar get on Cody Rhodes?: Just the one, again.
Rhodes match - how long does the match last? (2pt for closest scorer, 1pt bonus for everyone within 60 seconds): 9m36 says the word of ProFightDB. I take a three-fer here!

Smackdown Women's - how many 2-counts does Natalya get on Rhea Ripley?: Lol, no.
Raw Women's - does Asuka hit the poison mist on Bianca Belair?: She doesn't. But what she DOES do is wipe the dregs off her hands and wipe on Bianca a new spicy face mask. Not 'hitting', though, innit? Pandy only one to claim here.
World Heavyweight - what hits first, the Pedigree or the Phenomenal Forearm?: Interestingly, the Pedigree came first...but it was AJ that did it!
World Heavyweight - how long does the match last? (2pt for closest scorer, 1pt bonus for everyone within 60 seconds): 20m37, says word of God. I'm closest by virtue of highest number, but still a good 30sec off the bonus.
Which match opens the show?: It was the World Heavyweight Championship.
Which match main events the show?: It was, of course, the Tag Team Championship. Roman gotta eat.
Which match will Bleacher Report give the best grade to?: Both the curtain jerker and the main event get a shiny A each. 2 points all round!
Which match will Bleacher Report give the worst grade to?: We're treading new ground, with the first Incomplete grade of the predictions in the SmackDown Women's match. This one is a given due to them being more receptive to every other match on the card, but this'll be interesting if there's both an F/F- on the card as WELL as an Incomplete. We'll cross that bridge when we get there, I reckon.

FINAL SCORES

I OVERWROTE THE RESULTS LIKE A TWAT BUT BASICALLY ONI WON BY LIKE A LOT

That's the first time Roman has been pinned since 2019, I think.

Main Event Jey at it again.

First since Baron Corbin back in the 'loser eats dog food' days. Mad times. Gonna do the prediction results in a couple days.

Well, that was pretty bloody great, wasn't it?

CARD PREDICTIONS (WORTH THREE POINTS EACH):
Cody Rhodes vs Dominik Mysterio: Cody Rhodes wins, surprisingly this is probably the weakest match of the night, but was still 'perfectly serviceable'.
Women's Tag Team Championship - Ronda Rousey & Shanyna Baszler (c) vs Liv Morgan & Raquel Rodriguez: WOW, Ronda and Shayna decided to turn on each other. Nobody called this one.
Intercontinental Championship - Gunther (c) vs Matt Riddle: GUNTHER SMASH in a bit of a basic match, but Drew's baaaaaack
World Heavyweight Championship - Seth Rollins (c) vs Finn Bálor: Seth won, in another potential faction breakup in the Judgement Day!?
Bloodline Civil War - Roman Reigns & Solo Sikoa vs The Usos: The Usos did it! I can't believe I was the only person who didn't see this coming.
Women's Money in the Bank match - Zelina Vega vs Becky Lynch vs Zoey Stark vs Bayley vs Iyo Sky vs Trish Stratus: IYOOOOOO
Men's Money in the Bank match - Ricochet vs Shinsuke Nakamura vs LA Knight vs Santos Escobar vs Butch vs Damian Priest vs Logan Paul: Damian Priest!? I guess it's not Logan, but this is a weird one.

SPECIAL PREDICTIONS (WORTH TWO POINTS EACH UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED):
Cody match - does Rhea Ripley attack Cody Rhodes?: Yeah, she does. She pulls him off the apron to enjoy a faceful of stairs. In my book that is an attack.
Women's Tag - who gets the fall on who? (1pt for each): Ronda and Raquel, but NOT in the order we thought.
IC - will any of Imperium be directly involved in the ending of the match?: Nope, it's Gunther, he don't need no help.
World Heavyweight - will any of the Judgement Day be directly involved in the ending of the match?: Yeah, it was, but NOT in the way we thought!
Bloodline Civil War - who gets the fall on who? (1pt for each): Jey took Roman, in VERY MUCH the way we thought. Can't accept "Seth and one Uso" from Social, there.
Women's MITB - who gets their hand on the case first?: Now this is a testy one, but there's a part where Trish is the first one to touch it. It's a brief moment, but the case CLEARLY moves, so it's a touch.
Women's MITB - how long does the match last? (2pt for closest scorer, 1pt bonus for everyone within 60 seconds): 18m04. Lots of overshoot, I get 2 points for overshooting least.
Men's MITB - who gets their hand on the case first?: Despite a lot of close calls, it's actually Santos Escobar who gets a hand on it whilst Nakamura's trying to rip off his other hand.
Men's MITB - how long does the match last? (2pt for closest scorer, 1pt bonus for everyone within 60 seconds): 20m27. A lot of overshoot, Social gets the 2 points, but still too far out for the bonus.
Which match opens the show?: It's the Men's MiTB. We knew it was gonna be one of them, and half of us picked the wrong one.
Which match main events the show?: It had to be the Civil War, didn't it?
Which match will Bleacher Report give the best grade to?: The Civil War and the Men's MiTB get an A. No points for anyone!
Which match will Bleacher Report give the worst grade to?: Three get a C+ here, the Cody match, the Women's Tag, and the Intercontinental match.

Results link

FINAL SCORES

Quick - 25
Pandy - 25

Oni - 23
Social - 22

THE TITLE IS VACATED IN THE TIGHTEST MATCH IN PREDICTION HISTORY!! At SummerSlam, Quick and Pandy will have a 2 point advantage at the start. Goddamn.

"five minute white boy challenge"

Last updated: 2023-07-22 10:16am
WE TAKE THOSE

Honestly, quick review of the show; best fuckin WWE PPV of 2023 so far in my opinion. If they keep cranking these out, I'll seriously get back into watching on the regular. I went for a total hail-mary with Nakamura winning the MITB and it obviously didn't pay off, but it was honestly a match where I was like "any of these guys could win and I would say good job. Except Logan." Shayna's face***??? turn was a welcome surprise in a match where NOBODY expected them to lose, GUNTAHHH did GUNTAHHH things, and fuckin' Roman got pinned! Cracker of a show.

Still preferred Forbidden Door tho cuz I got to see my boy El PhantasmoKTHXBYE

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Just got to watching Dynamite in full and fucking hell Blood and Guts went off. A fucking FREEDOMS style board of nails? Kota goddamn Ibushi kicking Mox into it? Yes. All the way yes. MJF and Adam Cole's antics are endlessly entertaining too. Fantastic mix of comedy, technical, athletic and violence. Probably one of the best TV wrestling shows of the year.

Trying to keep up with the G1 as well but it's been difficult to follow everything since they've done the 4 block thing again. My predictions for the survivors of each block were:

A BLOCK
Shota Umino
Kaito Kiyomiya

B BLOCK
Kazuchika Okada
Taichi

C BLOCK
David Finlay
Eddie Kingston

D BLOCK
Zack Sabre Jr
Tetsuya Naito

"Ambivalent Viennetta"
It's the biggest party of the summer (if you don't count my uncle Neil's one. It's bloody great, there's a bouncy castle and everything) Both of our tied winners from last match will get their two bonus points added on. Will it make the difference? Probably not, but still.

NB: There's a SummerSlam Battle Royal announced as a "ARMBAR of the summer for people not important enough to have a real match" match. As of this point we only know four or so people in it, so we're not counting this one in the predictions, INCLUDING THE BEST/WORST ONE, because we all know that it's getting a C+ at best due to the nature of what it is.

"five minute white boy challenge"
I gotta admit I just put Logan vs Ricochet as the opener because I saw Jake Paul had some boring ass real fight (ew) the same night and thought that meant Logan would want to get out of the arena and to his brother's fight as quickly as possible. INSIDER INFORMATION, BROTHER.

Anyway, is WWE ever going to end this fucking Bloodline feud? It's not Kevin, it's not Sami, it's not Cody, it's not Jey, WHO IS IT?

Oh, piss and balls, I need to do the results for this don't I? I'll do it after work, honest.

CARD PREDICTIONS (WORTH THREE POINTS EACH):
Ricochet vs Logan Paul: Logan Paul finally got his flowers. And some brass knuckles, too.
Cody Rhodes vs Brock Lesnar: Cody wins the rubber, Lesnar done injured himself.
MMA Rules - Shayna Baszler vs Ronda Rousey: Baszler gets the win, bit of a shitter tbh
Intercontinental Championship - Gunther (c) vs Drew McIntyre: GUNTHER SMASH
WWE Women's Championship - Asuka (c) vs Bianca Belair vs Charlotte Flair: Bianca, which made no fuckin' sense, until about 1 minute later when IYO SKY CASHES IN and...wait, it still doesn't make sense. Great to see her get it, though.
World Heavyweight Championship - Seth Rollins (c) vs Finn Bálor: Seth retains admidst weird not-cash-in bollocks? Not sure I love the ending but very nice match.
Tribal Combat - WWE Universal Championship - Roman Reigns (c) vs Jey Uso: Roman wins via Jimmy in a way that made NO fuckin' sense at the time, but made ALL the sense at SmackDown and has left us at a very interesting crossroads right now.

SPECIAL PREDICTIONS (WORTH TWO POINTS EACH UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED):
Ricochet match - is there any interference from Logan Paul's shitheaded friends/colleagues?: Someone slipped him some knucks. Do I know who it is? No, but he's on the side of Logan, so he's probably a shithead.
Rhodes match - how many F5s does Brock Lesnar get on Cody Rhodes?: 1 through the table.
Rhodes match - how long does the match last? (2pt for closest scorer, 1pt bonus for everyone within 60 seconds): 17m32. Social takes the 2pt by mere seconds. Thieving git.
MMA Rules - Does the match last under 5 minutes?: No, but it BLOODY SHOULD HAVE. (7m24, btw)
IC - will any of Imperium interfere in the match?: Nope, and I'm not sure why we all put Yes to be honest
IC - how will the match finish; pin, submission, or other means?: It was a pin
Women's - who takes the fall?: Asuka. Hmmmmmmmmmm
Women's - does anyone get misted by Asuka, and if so, who?: Yup, Charlotte gets a lovely one right in the face. 1pt to Ham for partial credit.
World Heavyweight - what hits first, the Pedigree or the Coup de Grace?: Bálor hits the Pedigree on Seth, which counts!
World Heavyweight - will Rhea Ripley be involved in the conclusion of the match?: This is weird, everyone was...except her.
Tribal Combat - how long does the match last? (2pt for closest scorer, 1pt bonus for everyone within 60 seconds): 36 goddamn minutes. I get the 2, but massively undershot.
Which match opens the show?: The Logan match did, bit weird but OK
What's the STATED attendance (2pt for closest scorer, 1pt bonus for everyone within 1,000 - for reference, the last WWE event in Ford Field was 80,103 for WrestleMania 23)?: 59,194. Christ, we overshot that.
Which match will Bleacher Report give the best grade to?: The World Heavy match gets an A.
Which match will Bleacher Report give the worst grade to?: A B- for the Rousey match, which feels...a bit high to be honest.

Results link

FINAL SCORES

Social - 25
Oni - 25
Ham - 25

Quick - 22

IT'S A THREE WAY TIE. NOW WHAT DO I DO?

What's better/more anti-climactic than a 2-way tie? A 3-way tie immediately after.

Hilariously if I had gone with my gut and voted for Bianca for the women's title match instead of voting just for who I WANTED to win, all four of us would've tied on 25 lmao. Then again I was a bit cheeky in how I pretty much *knew* Logan's match was on first, so swings and roundabouts.
